  1. Be warned, please think twice before uprooting yourself, committing and accepting a travel nurse assignment at this hospital! I’m a traveling nurse, I’ve been committed to this assignment since Nov 2022. After 12hrs of orientation and 41 …

  2. I don’t know why all the negative comments, it was my first time at the hospital emergency and all the staff was very nice and respectful…very busy hospital.

  3. When they send you to another hospital cause they are clueless in some fields… never mind no restrooms have changing table for infants or toddlers. Gotta change em on the floor. I don’t know where the last person stepped…

  4. I used to be a patient sitter as a student of a local nursing school. Working in the E.D. a nurse threw a pen at me. I was shocked. All these years I’ve carried it. Unprofessional work staff.

  5. i’ve been in the emergency room for 2 hours and have gotten no attention. i haven’t even gotten my vitals checked. i may have appendicitis but no one would know BECAUSE no one has checked

  6. I have been sitting on hold for over 40 minutes trying to schedule blood work and a chest X-ray for my mother. This is ridiculous! I don’t know what they are doing, but NOBODY is answering the phone!

  7. Hit and miss with the care you get. Can’t say I have had all bad experiences but have definitely had a couple. But I have also been and had excellent care, depends on the staff.

  8. this place is a joke. they treat their staff like crap. and their patients like a number. the employees are great but people who run it only care about your money. unless im dying im going ANYWHERE else.!

  9. I wish I could give a zero!! Scheduling procedures, labor inductions, etc and then canceling because of “staffing” is less than professional! What a terrible joke this place is.

  10. Spent my morning in the ER with gallbladder pain. All of the staff was wonderful. I was seen quickly and had all the necessary tests done.

  11. Absolutely horrible place I was there for 11 hours and most of it was in the waiting room.Then a dude with long hair as skinny was rude.They also put a iv in and put me back in the waiting room.When I finally had a mental break down they let me go into the ER.

  12. I went to the emergency room because I was exposed to diesel fuel. I had a severe headache they did virtually nothing to help me. Put my clothes back on and I walked out. Mr hartung was especially not helpful. I left with a severe headache. I would not recommend this hospital.

  13. I’ve never had a good experience here ever, and if you’re having a mental health crisis you’re better off traveling to another hospital because they will treat you like you’re an animal here.

  14. My son and his girlfriend just had their first child and what did this hospital do? They called Child Protective Services on the first day of birth saying my kids are not taking care of my granddaughter. What are the nurses and aides there for? If they would let me in, due to co- vid, I will straighten out this staff!

  15. I have really no words . I wouldn’t give this one star if it didn’t force me to . The er is a dangerous place the lake chaplain obgyn is dangerous THEY LOST RECORDS AND WITH VITAL INFORMATION INSIDE . Avoid this place all together. Had a …

  16. This is for the records department I hope you do not need your medical records for a life-or-death situation I have requested my medical records so that I can retire from the US Military over 30 days ago and still have not received them …

  17. The most disrespectful laid back emergency room I’ve ever been to. Emergency situation, got blood taken and haven’t been seen or checked on for 4 hours, was not hooked up to vitals and there was a potential blood clot, what type of circus show are they running here!?

  18. I had to bring my dad because he is having chest pain I went in the er an asked for help to get him out of the car. After trying for several minutes I went back in an yet still no help. Finally a female nurse came out to help she dragged my …

  19. Hello my name is Terry Frary and my wife had surgery in this hospital August 8th ,2016. Her Doctor was Dane Larson. A very kind and generous compassionate man. Easy to talk to and you can see he listens and replies using words instead of a …

  20. For the reasons that I’ve had to go to cvph they’ve been great and being an asthmatic I appreciate them leaning on the side of caution. It’s not my favorite place or where is pick if I had a choice but they are better than some and at least …

  21. I visited the c.v.p.h. emergency room on 5/2/2016 , the staff was very efficient on collecting insurance information ,but. that is where the good service ended . I cannot imagine where they dug up the nit-wit “Doctor” who provided my care …

  22. If the ability to not give any stars were an option, that is exactly what I would give the Emergency Unit of this hospital. My Mom went in after a face first fall on a concrete sidewalk. The ER doctor took x-rays and confirmed that she had …

  23. came here after I blew my shin out at the gym I came at 12:30am waited to be checked in at the desk until 1:30am not one person came over finally someone came over and asked what I needed as I’m struggling to even stand up and I said can I …

  24. This last past week my Mother in law was transferred to CVPH, and we couldn’t be any happier with the care she was given there. She was brought into the ICU and the nursing staff was the best ever. I know I will forget names but I hope …

  25. I have lived in alot of places been in many ers and admited to many hospitals. Since I moved up here in 2008 I have heard so many people bad mouth this hospital. But every time I have needed the er had to stay get a procedure done, CVPH has …

  26. Hopefully readers don’t ignore this, but the service at this hospital is the worst I’ve ever seen. I’ve been to hospitals in developing countries and the service is thrice better than that at CVPH, which obviously, is in one of the biggest …

  27. I was treated like royalty! Nurses were kind,caring and professional. The doctors were amazing too. Explained process and after care and answered any questions I had

  28. I’m giving them a 4 stars cause when I went there for 2 infections in my colon and bowel track, they saved my life. I almost died a few times and cause of the doctors and nurses I’m still alive. I dont like the service in the emergency room …

  29. WORST HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE EVER. I was admitted into the mental health unit due to personal issues and it was horrible. On the 1st day while I was waiting in the ER my doctor for the day was extremely rude, unprofessional, and consistently …

  30. If I could give CVPH Health Network zero stars I would. I have been trying for over a week to schedule an annual mammogram. Each time I called to schedule an appointment, I have been on the phone for at least a half hour with no results. …

  31. I went with my friend to fast track. Never seen someone get talked to the way the nurse did to my friend. Very rude. You think they would help their patients be more comfortable. Barbara Dobbs is the nurses name.

  32. I have been in there on numerous occasions, usually for migraine treatment due to severe chemical allergies I can’t take much meds, last July I hadn’t had any lunch because I was picking things up fro the store, but had a really bad …

  33. They told my wife and I that everything was fine with our son, while he was dead in her womb. After almost killing my wife in the birthing process (8 attempts at an epidural before doing it “right”), we were told we’d have the autopsy …

  34. Nurses are nice, mostly. However, the service is a joke. Please, if you really feel you need genuine help and can possibly go elsewhere, please do.Dont waste your precious going here. I’m not sure where their quack docs went to med school but I’m pretty sure it was likely a department apart of clown school.Its bad.just …dont go.

  35. I cannot believe all the negative reviews on this hospital. I have been in hospitals all over the country and the world for that matter and my family and self have received the absolute best care here. My mother has had multiple successful …

  36. My last experience during covid last April was my appendix bursting..sent here..excellent care but sent home before I could even walk..because it was safer..now I’ve been sitting in the parking lot since this morning..my son is having out …

  37. Waited from 11:30pm until 4am with a broken hand. Asked the nurse when someone would be able to see me and was told nothing and just given attitude. It is the next day and I have been sitting here for another 4 hours still with a broken hand and no one has done anything to help me. Absolutely terrible.

  38. unorganized and unprofessional in every way. i’ve been here all throughout my life and have never had a good experience. I once came in, knowing i was sick, and after waiting 5 hours the ER told me it was all in my head and that I was fine. …

  39. Just returned a call to discuss my bill for and to schedule an MRI. The person who I spoke to, Bridget, was very very rude. I was transferred 6 times before the hospital hung up on me.

  40. Had been sitting in the ER since 9:15pm and it’s 2am. Friend had a nasty open wound that wouldn’t stop bleeding. They taped it and said we would be right in. Almost 6 hours later still waiting. Absolutely horrible. I hope this building gets shut down.

  41. I recently had to bring my son to the Emergency Room at CVPH for what was surely the worst pain he has ever been in. We were met by caring staff who attended to him with genuine concern. We found out he was dealing with a kidney stone and …

  42. Last year, I had an encounter with doctor Gabriel. I feel that I was neglected treatment because I lacked medical insurance. I felt sick, i was in pain, I started to think I was pathetic, because I am alone. Before I could explain why I …

  43. went to the hospital in extreme pain, the first few nurses that dealt with me were nice. after almost 20 hours of being there i was told my tests came back showing nothing and i could go home. i waited almost another hour for a nurse to …

  44. I was took my little boy emergency , the name nurses heather’s she is was on front 1:00 am 9/20/2022 she was one of worst and rudely trite us we was waiting over 3 hours CVPH management also very poor this is very bad for Plattaburgh community .

  45. Have had great experiences with CVPH over a lifetime of care. Kindness and concern are the qualities I’ve seen in all instances. Colonoscopy last week for me, my wife this week, our latest issues. Thank God we have this health network in our communty.

  46. I am highly disappointed in CVPH hospital. I was brought in last evening by ambulance given a room. This Carol lady came and took my vitals and did an EKG, about 45 minutes later this nurse came in with a tiny piece of paper to write my …

  47. A place to send your loved ones of you want them to die. Every single time I have been there I have been treated terribly. Had to wait for hours and hours. My fiance went in with problems breathing, and severe pain in his chest inside. And …

  48. Whatever you do, DONT take ambulance. They are not participating with insurance and do not negotiate with insurance companies leaving you with the bill. EMT of CVPH is setup separate from the hospital so they collect ALL their money. Bad business , bad for the community. Shame on CVPH.

  49. The most disgusting hospital I’ve ever seen!! ZERO STARS!!! The nurses at the desk were extremely disrespectful and not at all sympathetic to patients who are coming in for help. Couldn’t even use the bathroom because even the nurse …

  50. This place is absolutely horrid. Sat in the waiting room for 3 hours without being seen once, watched a 22 month old baby get taken in for a gash on his forehead and they told the parents “the room isn’t cleaned yet but we’ll do it when we …

  51. Staff have no idea on dealing with asthma personal business held on the floor and people don’t like when call lights go off so they come in dismiss u and turn off the call light and leave

  52. the waiting room had puke bags & blankets all over. sink didn’t work. and no hand sanitizer in sight. had a 17 year old with chest pains waiting for hours.

  53. Staff should stand up against these ridiculous NY state rules making visitors feel so unwelcome. Had to split up our family two by two to see a sick loved one and threatened to be kicked out if we were more than two. Going to this hospital is the worst. Enforcing rules that don’t make sense make you part of the problem.

  54. I had never been in the hospital since the day I was born in 1958.
    I was admitted with critical pneumonia.I was on R5,I can’t say enough about the fabulous care I received from Carmen,Tracy,Elma …

  55. Went to ER with extreme abdominal pain. Received Motrin. ER was the most filthy place I had ever been in. The state should shut it down. If you need a hospital and are not dying, go to St Albans Vermont.

  56. Went old that I could stay the night with my boyfriend being the only person that he had in the hospital I was asked to leave when visiting hours were done. My boyfriend was admitted for having a heart attack and having to have emergency …

  57. My son went to the ER after having a motorcycle accident. The nurses at the triage desk told them they don’t accept motorcycle insurance. Since when do nurses become the billing department? I think he has a broken forearm, a dislocated …

  58. I have lived in Plattsburgh for over 20 years now, my biggest regret is not researching the hospital at all before I moved here. It is hands down one of the worst run hospitals I have ever had to deal with. The nurses and staff are usually …

  59. I don’t know about anyone else but my family’s experience in the worse time of our lives was very appreciated. The nurses took such good care of my dad. They were friendly, understanding, caring to my mother and us. They made the worse …
